Writing Antiques

Writing antiques have great charm and historic interest. When quill pens began to be superseded by steel nibs and penholders these were rapidly manufactured, in true Victorian fashion, in numerous shapes, sizes and materials. This book describes and illustrates many of the writing antiques, from the inkstands to simple penwipers and ink bottles.

Antichitatile de scriere au un mare farmec si un interes istoric. Cand stilourile au inceput sa fie inlocuite de penite de otel si suporturi pentru stilouri, acestea au fost fabricate rapid, in adevaratul mod victorian, in numeroase forme, dimensiuni si materiale.
